Chalk based paint? Or something to paint plastic?

I was watching a garden show and they did a tutorial on how to paint plastic pots with "chalk based paint". I figured, great, let me go get some.

The only thing I keep finding is chalkboard paint, and it only comes in black or green!

I did find Krylon Fusion paint online that says it works on plastic. Has anyone used this, know how well it lasts, and if it stands up to the outdoors?

Thanks. Chat Icon

The Krylon Fusion works well. I used it to paint my DS playhouse a few years ago and it has held up well.

I used the Krylon Fusion to repaint my outdoor window shutters (they look like wood but they are plastic). It looks great and it's held up great so far. I would recommend it Chat Icon
